<p>The challenge for MecWash was to design a system able to cope with cleaning a wide range of pipes, with internal diameters ranging from 6mm to 22mm and different lengths (up to 2m long). The pipes come in various convoluted shapes, many with fittings on the end.</p>
<p>The customer, who already uses MecWash systems in the UK and India, could not find any acceptable system on the market and needed one designed. The MecWash research and development team undertook tests and trials to demonstrate the system concept, then the design team specified the bespoke system to meet the customer&rsquo;s needs.</p>
<p>The innovative system features a range of adjustable fixtures able to clamp a tube at virtually any angle, each fixture has soft seals to avoid any damage to the pipes. &nbsp;This allows wash solution to be flushed through the pipes at pressure, while the exterior is simultaneously sprayed. This process is then followed by dual internal and external hot air drying systems which remove the moisture from the pipes.</p>
<p>Parts washed using the system, were tested by the customer in the UK and passed the stringent cleanliness specifications. &nbsp;The system has now been despatched to India and installed in the plant.</p>
<p><strong>MecWash Managing Director, John Pattison</strong> said: &ldquo;This is a great example of how we work together with our customers to address unique cleaning challenges. Most wash system manufacturers either don&rsquo;t have the expertise or aren&rsquo;t prepared to invest the time to address such complex one-off requirements and high cleanliness standards.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;At MecWash, we relish these challenges. We have the capabilities to develop prototypes, the technology for cleanliness testing, the skills to formulate specialist wash chemicals and a strong design team to create one-off systems efficiently.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Customers often come to us when other suppliers have failed them and we are always delighted to demonstrate to them what is possible with high quality aqueous wash systems,&rdquo; he added.&nbsp;</p>
<p>MecWash specialises in manufacturing a range of standard and special purpose machines for use in the Aerospace, Automotive, Defence, General Engineering and Medical industries.</p>
<p>Previous challenges the firm has met include flushing cooling channels in turbine blades, a high pressure lance system for long drilled holes in engine blocks and washing complex components such as fuel injectors, aerospace sensors and heat exchangers.</p>

A recent project resulted in MecWash&rsquo;s largest machine to date.</p>
<p>The Tewkesbury based company provides tailored wash systems and solutions to a number of industry leaders across a variety of sectors including automotive, aerospace, defence, medical, hydraulics and pneumatics.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In 2011, MecWash was approached by one of its existing customers, a leading UK manufacturer in the aerospace industry, with a very specific cleaning requirement for bearing housing engine components used in civil and defence aircraft.&nbsp; The bearing housings are made of super alloys and the oil and swarf contamination created in the manufacturing process must be completely removed before the bearing housings are used in an engine assembly. Although MecWash is used to precision cleaning requirements, it is unusual to have such high cleanliness specifications for components almost a metre in diameter.</p>
<p>The challenge in this particular application was adequately flushing out the internal galleries, channels and tubes. This was overcome by incorporating dedicated jetting into the design of the bespoke machine, so that jets rotated with the component, continuously spraying wash solution into key contamination traps, flushing them clean.</p>
<p>MecWash worked closely with the customer to identify the issues it had experienced with its existing immersion equipment, which had not been meeting the company&rsquo;s stringent cleanliness specifications.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The results of this research led to MecWash designing and building its largest machine to date, based on existing designs and uprated to handle the large component size and heavier weights.&nbsp; The first &lsquo;SuperMaxi&rsquo; was born and has been in use on the customer&rsquo;s site for over eighteen months. The customer is very pleased that the machine continuously meets its stringent cleanliness specification.</p>
<p>The wash, rinse and dry process used in the SuperMaxi features a high flow rate designed for flushing complex components. The components are held in a wash chamber and water is pumped through and around the rotating parts at 500-2000 litres per minute, depending on the process stage. The combination of high flow wash and rinse solutions and dedicated jetting provides extremely powerful cleaning and highly successful contaminant removal.</p>
<p>The importance of clean components is paramount in all applications, and even more so in industries such as aerospace where substandard equipment could potentially cause operational issues. The SuperMaxi wash, rinse and dry system is built to the same robust specification as the rest of MecWash&rsquo;s machines, and because the customer had previous experience of working with MecWash, it knew that it was ordering a high quality product capable of consistently performing to the highest standards.</p>
<p>As with <a href="http://www.mecwash.co.uk/blog/post/Introducing-the-bespoke-Turbine-Blade-Washer-from-MecWash.aspx" target="_blank">BladeWash</a>, another recent addition to MecWash&rsquo;s product range, whilst the SuperMaxi was originally designed for a very specific application, it can be adapted to flush out debris/oils from a number of different large components with complicated geometries. The machine is now available as part of MecWash&rsquo;s standard range for such applications.</p>
<p><strong>MecWash Managing Director, John Pattison</strong>, says, &ldquo;We pride ourselves on listening to our clients and identifying their exact requirements so we can develop the best combination of technologies and wash solutions to achieve the desired finish. Due to its particularly high flow rate and dedicated jetting, the SuperMaxi is suitable for many applications that require powerful cleaning of components with internal bores or passageways.&rdquo;</p>

<p>In 2010, MecWash was approached by one of its existing customers, a leading UK manufacturer in the aerospace industry, with a very specific cleaning requirement for turbine blades used in civil and defence aircraft.&nbsp; The turbine blades are made of nickel based super alloys and the casting media used in the manufacturing process must be completely removed before the blades are used in an engine assembly.&nbsp; The challenge was flushing out the internal cooling channels in the blades, which could only be accessed via a very small orifice.</p>
<p>MecWash designed and built a prototype which delivered good results in trials.&nbsp; This was followed by the first production machine which has now been in use on the customer&rsquo;s site for over a year.&nbsp; The customer was so impressed with the cleaning results delivered by the original machine that a second was soon ordered and now the third and fourth &lsquo;BladeWash&rsquo; machines have been requested.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The wash process features a high flow rate designed for flushing components. The components are held in a very confined wash chamber, and water is pumped through and around the components at 1000-1800 litres per minute (depending on the component and fixturing) attaining very high speeds.&nbsp; This provides a very powerful cleaning effect, and a highly efficient rate of contaminant removal.</p>
<p>The importance of clean components is paramount in all applications, but in industries such as aerospace where substandard equipment could breach stringent Health &amp; Safety regulations, the need to achieve a spotless finish is absolutely vital.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />The BladeWash system is built to the same robust specification as the rest of MecWash&rsquo;s products, and because the customer had previous experience of working with MecWash, it knew that it was ordering a quality product capable of performing to the highest standards. Although turbine blade manufacture is an extremely niche market, the BladeWash can be designed and adapted to flush out debris/oils from a number of different components with complicated geometries.&nbsp; The machine is now available as part of MecWash&rsquo;s standard range for such applications.</p>
<p><strong>MecWash Managing Director, John Pattison</strong>, says, &ldquo;We pride ourselves on listening to our clients and identifying their exact requirements so we can develop the best combination of technologies and wash solutions to achieve the desired finish. Due to its particularly high flow rate, the BladeWash is suitable for many applications that require powerful cleaning of components with internal bores or passageways.&rdquo;</p>
